Belinda Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 I use a blend of 2 paraffins, 4625/4630 or 4633. I have used 4625 with 6006 and that works well also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ginab65 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 I've made 2 test batches of Ecosoya PB in 1 ounce portion cups. They smell good cold so far, but after 48 hours still not impressed with hot throw. I melted wax to 185 and added FO at 10% for first batch and 12% on second. I poured them at about 150. The first is Spiced Sugar Plum and the second is Fresh Fig. I also just ordered 10 lbs. of Pillar of Bliss from Nature's Garden. I'll see how this does. I really want to find a standalone wax that I can sell while I'm working toward my own proprietary blend. I haven't really seen anything negative posted about PoB. I hope this works out. Next up will most likely be IGI 6006. If need be I have the Ecosoya PB to blend with it. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candleladyMN Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Gina, you may have to let soy cure for up to 2 weeks before getting a good throw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginab65 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Gina, you may have to let soy cure for up to 2 weeks before getting a good throw. I figured that might be the case. I'm not sure I like using a wax that takes so long to cure. LOL I'm impatient. Ha ha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candleladyMN Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 I know me too, but it is the nature of soy wax lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karinz40 Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Walmart sells 2 oz portion cups. Would they be alright to use? Has any one tried them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candleladyMN Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 As long as they have a #5 in the recycle triangle they are good to use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
